Background: The impact of COVID-19 related quarantine on quality of life was expected and unclear for enterprise workers. We investigated the quality of life during the epidemic in enterprise workers just returned to work and assessed its potential influencing factors to get a better understanding of the impact of COVID-19 epidemic.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional study among enterprise workers in Deqing and Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, China. Chinese version of EQ5D to assess life quality, and information about general characteristics and COVID-19 related information was collected by a structured questionnaire online distributed through the social application “Wechat”.
Results: A total of 2435 participants were enrolled, 59.5% of which worked in Deqing. About 50% reported worries about the COVID-2019 epidemic and 40.1% of participants performed centralized or home quarantine during the epidemic. The mean EQ-5D score and VAS were 0.990 and 93.5. Multiple logistic regression suggested that physical activities (ORad=0.46) and keeping home ventilation (ORad=0.04) was related with life quality in Deqing, while for participants in Taizhou, wearing a mask when going out (ORad=0.35), keeping home ventilation (ORad=0.16), unmarried status (ORad=2.38) and experienced centralized or home quarantine (ORad=1.64) was related with quality of life.
Conclusions: Enterprise workers in two areas with different risk of COVID-19 experienced different life quality during the epidemic of COVID-19. Physical activity, marital status, worry about epidemic of COVID-19, keeping home ventilation, wearing a mask and quarantine were related with quality of life.
